What good fortune that my insurance will pay for a new pump! I was very happy to know that I could get a new breast pump during my second pregnancy. With my older daughter, I was using the Medela Pump in Style, which was good and got the job done. BUT, for my new baby my new choice, Spectra S2 Pump is the hands-down winner for me!

The user-friendly design and superior pumping efficiency makes this perfect for me when I’m pumping at home or at work.

I’m a fan. Watch my review which I hope will help you decide which pump will be right for you. Plus, enjoy seeing a glimpse into my world sleep-deprived momma, preparing to go back to work.

I’ve been using it for four months now. I bring the parts home to wash and I’m lucky to have a fridge at work that I can use to store the milk. (Although, life of a resident, I have to borrow my supervisor’s office and put a post it note on the door with no lock- but there again, I am happy and blessed to have such supportive coworkers!) I use Bonafide Baby bags excellent bags bought on amazon, recommended by my favorite MamaNatural!

Also, check out this freezer storage tip- line up the bags standing up in the freezer door. I first lay them flat so they freeze without bulging. I also write the date and how much milk is in there so the babysitter and I both know what’s in it, and I know how many bags to send and I can go to work in peace.

This organizing drying rack Boon Grass makes it easy because there’s a designated kitchen space for all these parts and it doesn’t mix in with our other dishes!
